The last time we saw Pete Davidson on Saturday Night Live, it was an understandably brief appearance, introducing musical guests Mark Ronson and Miley Cyrus. Understandable because, earlier that Saturday, an unsettling internet post from the publicly troubled Davidson had a lot of people worried for his safety. Well,…

Testing Late Show host Stephen Colbert on his American history on Friday’s show, best-selling author and pundit Rebecca Traister was impressed by Colbert’s grasp of Abigail Adams—at least as far as it went. Paraphrasing the “the one woman that we always hear about” (according to Traister) when it comes to the…

Run The Jewels’ Killer Mike was on Thursday’s Late Show to promote Trigger Warning, his six-episode Netflix series premiering on Friday. With the Grammy-winning Atlanta rapper’s long history of political activism—some more on-point than others—viewers can expect some brashly inventive social satire, according to Mike.…

Jimmy Kimmel hasn’t been subtle about his disdain for the current president over the two years since Donald Trump took office. (Yes, it has only been two years.) The latest act to incur Kimmel’s snarky ire is the Trump-mandated, now 26-day-long shutdown of the entire United States federal government in a snit over…

The pally bond between amiably irritating late-night goofball Jimmy Fallon and adorably brilliant goofball Lin-Manuel Miranda might be a little annoying, but, if we’re being honest, it’s because Fallon gets to do all manner of cool stuff with the Hamilton creator that we want to be doing.

50 Cent (or “Half-Dollar,” as Stephen Colbert insists on calling the rapper, actor, and Bitcoin and champagne mogul) turned up on Friday’s Late Show to swap tales of the benefits of being rich. Of course, there’s rich and super-rich, and guy with late-night CBS money Colbert was left goofing incredulously on 50's…

John Goodman was on Late Night With Seth Meyers on Thursday, talking about what it’s like shooting the Roseanne-less The Conners. “It was really odd,” Goodman replied to host Seth Meyers’ delicately phrased preamble about the offscreen behavior that led to former star Roseanne Barr’s abrupt departure, “We used to have…

With the now-hostless Oscars hurtling toward us in February, the comic responsible for the Academy’s decision that an Oscar host is just too damn much trouble continued his TV apology tour on Wednesday’s Late Show. Or, rather, Kevin Hart continued his non-apology tour, as he reiterated the litany of “I’m over it”s the…

Andy Samberg joined old Saturday Night Live buddy and new network-mate Jimmy Fallon on Tuesday’s Tonight Show to celebrate the return of Brooklyn Nine-Nine. Granted a reprieve after being unceremoniously shitcanned by Fox, the enduringly hilarious cop sitcom comes back on Thursday on its new NBC home, right before…

Late-night hosts and their staffs took the holidays off, presumably to sit in darkened rooms with no internet, drink heavily, and gradually decompress from the stresses of processing the unending Trump administration horror-news cycle. At least they’ve all got that sweet TV money coming in, unlike the federal…
